About: Hi, my name is Sarah and I am a Surgical Veterinary Technician in Philadelphia, PA. On a daily basis I do everything from triaging cats and dogs for routine and non-routine surgical procedures, monitor anesthesia, recover from surgery, give treatments to sicks pets, as well as give vaccines to healthy pets during wellness appointments. I have experience working with dogs and cats of all ages as well all different temperaments. I currently work full-time, but only work 3 days a week. As I currently do not have any pets or kids I have the availability to give all of my attention to your furbabies. I own a house with my boyfriend and we currently do not have any pets. Our house is rancher with a large fenced-in yard where your pups have the space to run around. Our neighborhood is very quiet with not much foot traffic which allows your anxious pets to be in a quiet environment.

“Megan was great with Henry! She was prompt, provided great communication throughout, and Henry loved spending time with her. We will definitely continue to work with her!”


“Vivian was an awesome sitter for my cat baby. She provided me with a lot of updates and photos and she was on time. My cat eventually warmed up to her sweet personality and let her pet and brush her. I definitely hope to use Vivian again in the future.”


“Julia is super caring and a great communicator! She worked with my schedule and noticed things about my 2 cats that showed she’s very tuned into your pets behavior and needs. I’ve already booked her again for my next trip in November!”


About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 20 years of hands-on pet care experience, including over 8 years as a professional pet sitter and dog walker with Achilles Total Pet Care, LLC. I’ve worked with dogs of every size, breed, and personality, including rescues, seniors and pups with special needs. My passion for animals started in 2004 when we adopted our first dog, Amber, who had never even been on a leash. We trained her from the ground up and she changed my life. From 2007 to 2009, I volunteered at the Voorhees Animal Orphanage doing community outreach, dog walking and was part of the "Pit Partners" program focusing on pit bull type breeds, many of whom needed extra exercise, patience, structure, and love. Since then, I’ve continued to dedicate my time and heart to helping dogs thrive. I also have over 15 years personal experience caring for our special needs dog, Max, who has severe environmental and food allergies, anxiety, and needs daily medication and ongoing management. I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet—and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m known for providing loving, dependable, and individualized care, whether it’s a long walk, playtime, medication, or just keeping your pet safe and happy while you’re away from home. My clients become like family—because their pets already are. ❤️ Let’s connect—I’d love to meet your furry family member! I’m available part-time for dog walks and drop-in pet visits while my kids are at school, activities, or camp. I occasionally offer pet sitting services when my schedule allows. I’m reliable, loving, and treat every pet like family! When I care for pets, whether it’s during a walk, a drop-in visit, or an occasional overnight stay at your home, safety and trust are my top priorities. I make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure by sticking to their routine, staying aware of any triggers and keeping them safe from any hazards. I maintain open communication with you, providing updates and photos, so you always know your pet is in good hands. At your home, I respect your space, follow your rules, and ensure your pet feels at ease.

“Brijana was GREAT with our furry family member and with us pesky owners!! She was easy to keep in touch with and communicated well when we unexpectedly ended up with everyone traveling on the same two days. We came home to a happy puppy- thanks to her loving friendly care. I hope Brijana is available next time we need an extra hand!”


“We’re so grateful for Sahiba coming at the last minute to care for Lucy. It was Lucy’s 1st time to meet Sahiba who responded quickly, did all that I asked her to do & sent pictures too. We recommend her service & will definitely rebook for next week.”


“Bracey was amazing and really cared for my dogs. From the moment Bracey met Gus and Phoebe, I knew this was going to be a positive experience for them. Communication was excellent! I will definitely work with Bracey in the future.”


“Alyssa did a good job of taking care of our 2 cats while we were away for the weekend.”


About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and have been caring for them for over 8 years. For the past 2–3 years, I’ve regularly walked dogs at my college animal shelter. My experience ranges from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing a gentler touch. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, and care for their pets like they’re my own. I’m patient, reliable, and genuinely enjoy connecting with every animal I meet. I currently work a few mornings during the week, which leaves my afternoons and evenings free to care for your pets! I’m also available on weekends for dog walking, drop-ins, or boarding. Pet care easily fits into my routine because it’s something I genuinely love and look forward to. I always prioritize comfort and safety, whether that means giving space or providing plenty of play. I’m also happy to crate your dog if that’s part of your home routine or training. Your pet’s well-being is always my top priority.

About: Hi there, and thank you for considering me to care for your pet! I’ve grown up around animals my whole life—everything from large and lovable dogs to tiny, energetic pups, plus more cats than I can count. My childhood felt like a mini farm, filled with dogs, cats, ducks, chickens, and more. That environment gave me early, hands-on experience caring for all kinds of animals, and it’s something I’ve truly loved ever since. Over the years, I’ve also fostered dogs, puppies, and kittens, and regularly help care for my family’s pets (a fun mix of all sizes and personalities). In 2021, I adopted my own dog, Squid, who’s taught me even more about patience, structure, and the joy that comes with being a pet parent. I graduated from college in May 2024 and now work full time, but my schedule is flexible—especially when it comes to making time for animals. I’d love the opportunity to meet your pet and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you're away. I work full time but my schedule is very flexible. I can make routine stops during the day enduring a minimum 15 minute walk (minimum 15 minutes during the work day-on weekends, walks can and will be longer depending on pet health and/or weather). But, my schedule is very flexible and can try to accommodate your schedule/pets schedule to the best of my ability. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for your pets. With years of hands-on experience—from growing up in an animal-filled home to fostering cats and dogs of all ages—I’ve learned how to create a calm, secure, and nurturing environment for animals of all temperaments. Whether your pet is energetic, anxious, or shy, I approach each one with patience, understanding, and close attention to their individual needs. I always treat your home and pets with the same care and respect I give my own dog, Squid, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and genuinely loved while you're away.

“Briana is literally the best cat sitter! She’s extremely kind, detailed, and reliable. You can tell she truly loves the pets she is helping to care for. We so appreciate her as a person!”


“Michelle was nothing but kind and understanding in the needs for my pup! She is extremely caring and adhered to what I asked during her visit. She took time to make sure my dog felt safe and comfortable with a new face. She’s so good, that he quickly opened to a new face!”


“Gloria did a fantastic job with my 2 cats while I was away on a bicycling vacation. She sent pictures and kept me updated on her arrival and departure times. I will definitely use her services again”


About: I've been caring for pets since I was 13; I've always had an instinctual desire to love and care for animals! I had 3 dogs of my own once and during my time with them I realized how important it is to give your dog the exercise and attention they need so that they can live a happy and healthy life! Sometimes life can get too busy to give your dog what they need, I can help by giving them walks and visits when you're unable to! I work full-time mostly in the mornings! Some days I'm off and will be able to pop in for a visit or walk! I'm more probable to be available the whole week in the evenings and night times! Just message and ask for my availability! I can care for your pet by walking them around the neighborhood! I can feed your pet and also play with them with their favorite toys!

About: I have been a vet tech at Pennsauken animal hospital for about 3 years! I am fear free certified in dogs and cat! I am trained to handle any type of dog / cat! My schedule changed quite frequently but I am available early mornings or late nights and most weekends! I would not be able to stay at a house full time due to 8+ hour work shifts! I am pretty much able to handle anything! I am also able to assist with any animals that might need to be medicated or any friends that might be unfriendly! I am fear free certified in dogs and cats! I love to take pictures of fur babies, so expect photos!

About: I’ve had dogs all my life and have watched a number of dogs for friends and family. I can feed, play, walk, give meds, and anything else you may need for your pet. I love animals and always make sure they are treated well. I am a stay at home mom so I am able to help with your pet at any time throughout the day. I am very flexible. I can let dogs outside to use the bathroom if they have a fenced in yard or take them on walks, whatever is preferred. I can play outside with them as well to tire them out while their parents are away.

Christina H.
“No worries with Christina. She was dependable about showing up on time and keeping in touch. I really appreciated her being dog savvy. She walked Landon 3x a week for 3 years. Landon was a challenge to walk because of his dog reactivity. Christina handled him expertly (something I couldn’t do.) and kept me posted on any incidents both positive or negative. A few times I ran into her while I was walking my other dogs and she was always on point. Also when I would walk Landon myself I could tell that his behavior was the best it could be. Landon looked forward to Christina showing up for his walks. She has a calm and fun personality so I looked forward to her coming too. I definitely recommend her for any pet care needs.”

Avery G.
“The care and knowledge Avery uses with animals is simply unmatched. I was able to watch her walk and play with a couple of dogs at our local shelter and I was truly blown away! Something that really stood out to me was her ability to calm dogs down and refocus their attention. When the shelter dogs saw Avery they got really excited and sometimes ended up jumping on her. She was able to calm the dog down while maintaining a positive relationship and continue on with their walk. After that instance, the dog was incredibly well behaved! She cares deeply about every animal she works with and has inspired me to start volunteering at the shelter myself! Avery is absolutely fantastic when it comes to pet care.”


Chrissy S.
“I have known Chrissy for 15 years. She is honest, reliable and has enormous love and compassion for animals. Chrissy will care for your pet as it was her own. I would completely trust her with the care of my two fur babies, Moe and Bella. If you are looking for a pet sitter, I would highly recommend Chrissy!!”

“Hunter has always loved animals. She is outgoing and responsible. I think she would be a good fit for that as she also works as a vet tech in an animal hospital.”


Jonelle H.
“Jonelle was absolutely fantastic with my two girls (cats). My cats are my babies so I am enormously cautious about who cares for them when I am away. It is such relief knowing Jonelle will take care of my girls when I am away. She followed all of my instructions and went above and beyond taking care of my girls! I am so very grateful to have her!!”
